HAve a lot of kids here link is to an adult site


DUKE do you know about this part
InternetRealEstate.com is owned by Internet Real Estate Group LLC Partners, which has been involved in the acquisition, development and sale of domain names like Beer.com for $7 million, Telephone.com for $2 million, Shop.com for $3.5 million, and others such as Computer.com, College.com, Diamond.com, Timeshares.com and CreditCard.com.

A principal of InternetRealEstate.com told XBiz that his company has nothing to do with Escom and has no affiliations with DNAG either, although the company President Andrew Miller and CEO Peter Hubshman were both named as defendants in the DNAG/Sex.com lawsuit and both names appear on the InternetRealEstate.com website.

InternetRealEstate.com’s former name, Deal Jam LLC, also was named in the Sex.com lawsuit, before it became known as Internet Real Estate Group.

Say what you will, but it is one of the most recognized words in the world, AND a 3 letter .com on top of that...
$14mil is a fair price, porn and "perversion" aside, :imho:

Sex.com Sold to Escom LLC For $14M

Isn't prostitution illegal? :hehe:

 

[XDuncan]

14M is way too cheap for this name. Way too cheap.

So, how does it rank in the highest ever sold domain?

BTW: the color background is all wrong from the linked website.

Surely theres some catch,

As i'm sure i read somewhere he was making in the millions per month?

The new owner will gain his investment back in no time atall.

Seems a little fishy.

I know that convenience stores are often sold for 3X net profit (not gross).

If other businesses do somewhat the same, then maybe he was neting $4.66 Million/yr. $14M would be 3X net.

A good point, but also a concern if the owner has a conscience.

In my opinion, along with the inevitable curious teen traffic comes some responsibility and accountability for the owner of such a high profile domain. I realize some will disagree.
